Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room had an overwhelming cigarette smell and the nearby nightclub's noise disrupted my sleep, but on the bright side, it was warm and having a bath available was a nice touch. The service was lacking, distant from most transportation options, and the staff came off as sour and disrespectful. The location was excellent, central and convenient for sightseeing, although some noise disturbances were present. The dining experience was subpar, with limited options, except for a warm and homemade buffet. Overall, a mixed experience.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, though very old, were surprisingly warm and clean, with neat and comfortable mattresses; however, they were a bit cramped for four adults. The service was friendly and helpful, making up for its lack of professionalism. The location was excellent, close to the center and affordable. While the dining options were disappointing, the facilities were satisfying.
The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of beautiful Sofia, offering nice rooms, but with some outdated aspects. The service was a mix of helpfulness and unsmiling behavior. The dining experience featured delicious Bulgarian cuisine. The hotel's location is central but lacking nearby public transport options.
